HP 3Gb SAS Switch Single Pack for BladeSystem c-Class

Are you lacking a simple external direct attached or shared storage solution for your c-Class enclosures?

The HP 3Gb SAS BL Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures is an integral part of an HP direct connect SAS storage solution, providing a straight forward architecture for external zoned direct attach as well as shared SAS storage. BladeSystem server administrators now have a simple in-rack SAS storage solution that’s ideal for growing capacity requirements—without the need to coordinate storage requirements with SAN administrators.

The SAS architecture combines a P700m Smart Array in each server, and 3 Gb SAS BL switches connected to HP MDS600 or MSA2000sa SAS storage devices. The simplicity of SAS results in a very low cost per GB, enabling low cost zoned or shared SAS storage.
